In case the OCAMLPARAM environment variable is set to the empty
string, the current behavior is to attempt to parse it, which fails to
find the `_` character separating the "before" and "after"
settings. This patch changes this to treat OCAMLPARAM set to the empty
string the same as being unset, which is to do nothing.
* Move driver code from Cmt2annot to Read_cmt

* make depend
* Use standard error handling
* Move specific logic to read_cmt
* Do not pass full cmt record as argument
* Better locations
* Emit .annot files produced from cmt data
* Remove direct calls to Stypes
* Deprecate -annot
* Changes
* make depend
* Adapt doc
* make -C tools depend
This PR was tested with also the -dsel, -dlinear output (also fixed to
not-print locations), but the output is architecture-dependent so this
part of the test was removed.
This commit defines five default argument modules in
Main_args.default. Those modules provide a default implementation
for the argument of ocaml, ocamlnat, ocamlc, ocamlopt, ocamldoc,
ocamlcp, ocamloptp, and expect_test.
Grouping together those implementations allow to share as much as
possible similar implementation across executables. It should make
easier to keep synchronized the various implementation, or reuse
those implementation in alternative drivers.
This option allows to build self-contained bytecode executable and is aimed to replace `-custom`. The main difference between the two is that executables produced by `-output-compete-exe` can be stripped.
* Various file moves in the middle end: this is the first stage of improving separation between the middle end and backend.
* Creation of file_formats/ directory (with associated file moves) to hold the definitions of compilation artifact formats.
* Creation of lambda/ directory (with associated file moves) to hold Lambda language definition files, transformation passes and construction passes from Typedtree.
* Disable (hopefully temporarily) dynlink, debugger and ocamldoc for the dune build.
This commit removes support for gprof-based profiling (the -p option to ocamlopt). It follows a discussion on the core developers' list, which indicated that removing gprof support was a reasonable thing to do. The rationale is that there are better easy-to-use profilers out there now, such as perf for Linux and Instruments on macOS; and the gprof support has always been patchy across targets. We save a whole build of the runtime and simplify some other parts of the codebase by removing it.
